Monitoring and management capabilities let you quickly detect, analyze and fix errors reducing time-to-resolution and avoiding costly downtime.

Creating Events

Event generation is an out-of-the-box feature. On installation, the Monitor component begins to collect and report information about events, according to the Monitor's default settings. The resulting events are displayed in Monitor |  Events. To further enhance monitoring  effectiveness, event thresholds can be customized. In a similar manner, thresholds can be gradually modified to not only reflect improvements in performance, but also to verify that problematic issues have been resolved.

Configuring Events

Events can be configured according to each environment’s specific requirements. The main configuration changes that should be performed relate to tuning rule values and defining a list of functions and PHP errors to monitor.
